  Pro’s: Caminito Del Rey is a “must do” experience if you’re staying near Malaga. Going on an arranged tour is recommended if you want to avoid hiring a car or going by train, both of which have drawbacks. Personally I found it hard to co-ordinate getting Caminito Del Rey tickets with the train times and I didn’t want to drive as some of it is on quite narrow and winding roads. The tour guides do provide some valuable background to the area and make the journey more entertaining. The instructions for joining the tour were clear and it was reasonable value. The journey is approx 1hr 20mins and on the journey there we stopped at a small town called Ardales. This was a welcome toilet break because there are no convenient toilets at the original meeting point. There isn’t much to see in Ardales but they do appreciate you spending money in their cafe’s and in return you get a toilet break. When we arrived at Caminito Del Rey we split up into a few separate groups of approx 20 persons. One group went with Javi and the rest with local tour guides. Our tour guide was Tina and she was very chatty and provided good information. The tour guides are happy for you to push ahead of the group or drop behind if you would rather be faster or slower and not listen to the guide. There are toilets at the beginning and end of the walk. They are pretty busy though and ladies might need to wait a while. There are also some good value food and drink stalls at the end. Cons: Our coach was a little late arriving. It is a large group tour (52 people in our case). The were multiple nationalities and languages on-board which made it difficult for the tour guide Javi. Some of the group were talking over him while he was giving important instructions and he was getting a little frustrated but it ended up being slightly unprofessional. I did not enjoy the journey back. The coach was quite stuffy, the driver had his window open and the smell of diesel fumes was strong. The roads for the first thirty minutes are winding and narrow and if you’re even slightly prone to travel sickness like me then you might start feeling a little queasy. Overall I’d give this tour a 3.5/5

  The area was stunning, and it was nice to get outside and move our bodies while traveling, but the tour felt unnecessary. The headset hurt my ears, and I couldn’t understand the tour guide for 90% of the time (she was lovely, but the headphones were scratchy and cheap). If you’re looking for a beautiful outdoor experience, you should got to Caminito del Rey, but you could probably do it on your own. You're paying for the transportation out and back, and the drive made me super nauseous because of all the twists and turns. If you get motion sick easily, be aware.

• Amazing.

  Our tour of Caminito del Rey was absolutely unforgettable! The views were breathtaking, but what truly made the experience stand out was our guide, Javier. He was incredibly attentive to everyone in the group, always making sure we felt safe and comfortable along the way. His knowledge of the history, geology, and personal stories behind the path brought the whole place to life, turning an already beautiful hike into something truly special. If you’re considering this tour, don’t hesitate—especially if you get Javier as your guide!

  Great organization and a friendly guide. Amazing views. Even I, who have a fear of heights, was able to complete it without issues. The end is really exciting! I am also a birdwatcher, so it was amazing to see so many vultures.
